What colors do you guys think would go alright with the deep wedgewood blue and the bottom half of my truck. I was looking at that dark amber that ford has on the new super duties. What are your guys opinions and I want something a little different than the silver and black ones I've seen around.


Thank you fellas

Harvest Gold?

Looking at the color wheel you can see gold is across from blue, which is a complementary color.

Black on the bottom helps hide the dirt.

Oh yeah I love that wheel ya have there. Well here's the situation, a friend of mine works for our local parts store and they mix dupont/nason paints. He called me up the other day and asked if I could use a burnt orange looking like color. So I picked it up real nice and cheap like and shot it on an old fender I had laying around and it looks like orange but it's closer to a bronze color.

I have the identical blue/silver combo as above on my '08. Four years later, I am still getting compliments on it. I've seen the other lower color that was available then, (Arizona Beige I believe) and I think it looks equally as good. Can't go wrong with either of those, IMO.

Can you prop the fender next to your truck and take a pic?

No, black makes the mud splatters stand out.
